Even on a turning track Bess has no control over line and length. Absolutely awful.

I think when it turns most of the time you want to be bowling in the same spot repeatedly

I know Panesar was left arm but at his best landed it from a tall action consistently on a length that made it difficult for the batsmen to get forward on auto pilot

Isn't it a bit of a disaster for Broad, if he doesn't take any wickets?

But he’s very upset, angry and hurt...

Would be nice to see England come up with a plan for a flat one that isn't just 'bang it in half way down for a couple of hours'. Reckon Stokes could easily take 5 runs off his bowling average if Root wasn't skipper.

He has been a a bit unlucky and could of picked up a couple on another day.

Doesn't seem to be as much movement on this wicket as at Southampton.

But if you mean Wood , Anderson and Archer are waiting for the next game I see your point.

Can't believe they will leave out Jimmy out for the next test. Woakes and broad  are wicket less currently.

Edit Broad has got one

Does Root just not understand bowler's workloads?
11 overs in a row before tea. Then brings him back after tea and then Stokes' stomach muscle goes? (Or something like that).

I'm putting that down to poor captaincy again.
Woakes gets one :D

Unless Root was feeding Stokes at tea like a fois gras duck I dont think you can blame him. Indigestion!
